SCAM / BURGLARY ALERT - a few neighbours on Liberia and Calabria Roads have found these barely visible transparent stickers on their doors/letterboxes. This is a known scam - houses which still have the stickers visible after a few days are targeted for burglary. CHECK your door and remove it.

Work starts today to remove the dilapidated buildings marked on the map - the bandstand, the Oasis cafe and the derelict park keeper’s bungalow. The second picture shows how much park space will be recovered by removing the bungalow. Work starts in September on new buildings. #HighburyFields

According to helpful National Power Networks website, the reason for this unplanned power cut is: “An underground electricity cable has faulted on our high voltage network, causing an area wide power cut”. Power restoration currently expected by 9am. www.ukpowernetworks.co.uk/power-cut

UPDATE, 7:05am: some homes reconnected by diverting power over undamaged parts of the network, leaving 709 homes without electricity. UK Power Networks are exploring other diversions to reconnect more properties. @ukpowernetworkscontactcentre #highburypowercut #highburyfieldsweather

More on the east-of-Fields powr cut- UK Power Distribution Networks say the cause is a faulty cable. No time given for restoration of power. With temperatures below freezing, please make sure you stay warm and look out for neighbours. #highburypowercut

There’s currently a power cut around Highbury Fields, affecting (at least) streets east of the Fields. Started around 6:30am. Hoping power comes on soon - outdoor temperature is currently -1ºC.

Highbury & Islington closed until around 7:30am. Mildmay and Windrush trains are running but not stopping ar H&I. Northern City line trains to/from Moorgate are not running until at least 8:15, and not clear whether the deep level platforms at H&I will be open.
